What Places does Christ have in modern society? Fr. Cantalamessa, the preacher to the papal household, posed that question in a series of Advent and Lent meditations presented to Pope Benedict XVI. In Remember Jesus Christ, he explains that in order to bring people to Christ today, the church needs to proclaim, as simply and succintly as the apostles did that "Jesus Christ is Lord!" And the essential core of that proclamation is the passion and death of Jesus, because the cross of Christ is the supreme proof of God's love for us. Scripture, personal testimonies, and allusions to works of art reinforce Cantalamessa's powerful and prophetic message, leaving readers with hope and expectant faith in the future of Christianity in the modern world.Cantalamessa, Raniero is the author of 'Remember Jesus Christ: Responding to the Challenges of Faith in Our Time', published 2007 under ISBN 9781593251093 and ISBN 1593251092.
